My pleasure!

Great tip, thank you! “Go forth and make buttonholes”!

[@DoraDoes]

You're welcome!

It’s amazing! I wasn’t able to find any good hidden button and an actual way to do it. All of the other ones were just showing how they did it or they didn’t explain that at all you explained it perfectly. This deserves to go viral.❤❤❤❤

Thank you so much - so glad you found it useful! ☺️

I just tried this with some back loop single crochet ribbing and foundation single crochet and it worked *beautifully*! Thanks Michelle!

[@DoraDoes]

thanks hats great to hear! it’s a pretty flexible technique!

I was just going to ask if it works in SC ribbing. Thanks! can I ask how many FSCs you made?I think i might need 3 im kind of skeptical it if works

[@tracyvision]

@@Heeyitsmika it will depend upon the size of your button. I made mine a wee bit smaller than my button so it had to stretch just a bit to get through.

Oh my! You saved me soooo much time! I was very nervous doing this, but it went smoothly! Will keep this video!

That’s great to hear! Sometimes crochet techniques can seem really hard but once you have the hook and yarn in front of you they just make sense!! So glad you found this helpful!

Just perfect, making a cardigan for my other half and didn't like the look of the buttonhole with the chains... thank you so much for sharing this technique with us x

[@DoraDoes]

I’m so glad you found it useful. This was the exact reason I came up with it - those unsightly gaps nagged at me!! 😊

[@lindascroggins6204]

This is great! Used it to make an adjustable ear saver for surgical masks.

Is there a way to create the button hole with the slip stitch? Thanks, appreciate you🧶🧶🧶

[@DoraDoes]

I’ve not tried it but you could just crochet a chain (or chains depending on the size of your button). Because slop stitches are so short, this should have the same effect.
